asked the Minister of Power what is the estimated capital employed, and profits before tax, of the brick-making interests of the National Coal Board for the most recently available 12-month period.

The latest available information is set out in the Board's published accounts for the year 1966–67.

asked the Minister of Power if he will give details of the studies he has undertaken with a view to the merger of the brick-making activities of the National Coal Board and the National Steel Corporation.

I know of no studies of this nature.
